Ankle-Foot Orthosis (AFO) with Ankle Joint — Rigid Articulated Foot Drop Brace
This prefabricated Ankle-Foot Orthosis (AFO) is constructed from plastic or other rigid material and features an articulated ankle joint, available with or without dorsiflexion assist. Designed for patients with foot drop, dorsiflexor weakness, or gait instability, the brace holds the foot in proper alignment during walking — preventing toe drag, tripping, and falls while allowing controlled, natural ankle movement.
Key Benefits
- Foot Drop Correction: Keeps the foot lifted during swing phase to prevent toe drag and tripping.
- Articulated Ankle Motion: Hinged joint allows a smoother, more natural walking gait than solid AFOs.
- Dorsiflexion Assist Option: Spring-assisted lift compensates for weak dorsiflexor muscles.
- Fall Prevention: Improves ground clearance and gait stability for safer everyday mobility.
